Book excerpt: A wealthy and virtuous man faces the ultimate test of faith in this suspenseful and inspiring modern retelling of Job by the author of The Runaway Prophet. Seth Jacobs has it all—health, wealth, a great career, a mansion in greater Boston, a beautiful wife, and three children. But in a series of reversals beyond his control, Seth loses his many fortunes one after the next. His friends, who suggest God has a reason for inflicting so much loss and pain upon him, challenge Seth’s faith. At the lowest depths of his suffering, Seth asks God—as we all do—“Why is this happening to me?” And he receives an unexpected answer. A modern-day story based on the Bible’s Book of Job, The Faithful One inspires us all to keep our faith in the Lord no matter what. “Chynoweth constructs—and then deconstructs—Seth’s life with an eye for detail and an inventive sense of how one tragedy can beget the next.” —Kirkus Reviews
